Indianapolis Becomes Latest City to Ban Sexual Orientation Discrimination

Indianapolis, Indiana became the latest city in the United States to ban discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. The ban not only applies to employment, but also to housing, public accommodations, and other areas.

The city council vote was 15-14.

It was rejected in April (story) on an 18 - 11 vote after the conservative group Advance America launched an e-mail campaign encouraging its members to write the 29 council members.
